A bull snake slid across the yard and took his tail with him down the hole under the tree surrounded by rocks.

The basil plant bloomed purple while two storms moved slowly towards us.

A nuthatch comes head first down the tree to snag a black sunflower seed and flit away with it to a low branch.

The blue heron landed on top of the barn and stayed there while my world just kept on going.
